Fort Morgan scores 10 runs in 7th en route to 18-5 win

ENGLEWOOD — If the Fort Morgan Mustangs had just gotten their final at bat, it still would have been enough to put down the Englewood Pirates on Wednesday evening as Fort Morgan won 18-5.

The Mustangs went into the final inning with an 8-1 lead and scored 10 on the Pirates before giving up four in the bottom of the seventh but still winning by a comfy 13-run difference.

Reyes Rodriguez got the Mustangs started in the top of the seventh with an RBI grounder. Kyle Daniels would score shortly after on a wild pitch. Wes Anderson would connect for an RBI, and Jared Henderson would draw an RBI walk to score the next run. Austin Kosman would rope out a two-RBI single. Henderson would score a little later on a wild pitch and then Joey Schneider would send out an RBI single. The Mustangs weren't done yet, with two runs coming home on Rodriguez dual-RBI triple, his third RBI of the day.

Jared Bohm was the winning pitcher, he served six innings and gave up three hits and one earned run. He struck out six and walked one in 22 batters faced. Blayden Pollitt closed the game up, giving up two hits and four runs, two earned. He struck out three.

Rodriguez was 2-for-3 on the day. Wes Anderson was 1-for-6 but had three RBI. Schneider went 3-for-4 with an RBI and Bohm was 3-for-5.

The Mustangs will play Englewood again, this time at home on Friday in the final regular season game of the season. The game will start half an hour earlier to make time to honor the seniors.
